419 Pointsnot sure why i am getting this wrong
yea, I'm a beginner, and this may seem pretty elementary but in this Concatenated final greeting, i'm not sure why my code i wrong.
let name = "Donnie"
let greeting = "Hi there, \(name)"
let finalGreeting = "\(greeting), \(How are you?)"

let name = "Donnie"
let greeting = "Hi there, \(name)"
let finalGreeting = greeting + " How are you?"
The + sign "adds" the two Strings together.

71,830 Pointsdonnie, try this one. It seems I left out a period it wanted after the name:
let name = "Donnie"
let greeting = "Hi there, \(name)."
let finalGreeting = greeting + " How are you?"

Treehouse Teacherjcorum He posted the question elsewhere and his code has changed to have finalgreeting as the constant instead of finalGreeting so the challenge is rejecting it. :(
